Is the enemy of my enemy, my friend or my enemy? Marco Antonio Barrera must have had those words rolling in his brain for the last couple of months. Even though Morales is his sworn enemy, Barrera is backing him in what is being called the toughest fight of Erik Morales' career. When Erik Morales and Manny Pacquaio step in the ring this Saturday night, Marco Antonio Barrera will be cheering on his countryman and enemy to win, a move that has even surprised Erik Morales.
Barrera's allegiance to Mexico is shining bright in a very bold move by backing the man he hates. Should Pacquiao win this fight, Barrera would be in line for a huge multi-million dollar pay per view rematch with man who has been dubbed with the moniker of "The Mexican Assassin". Should Morales win the fight, a fourth bout with Barrera would mean big bucks, but is a less lucrative bout then a Barrera-Pacquiao rematch. details]
The only reason MAB is rooting for Morales is to show to everyone that the ass raping that he took back in Nov 03 was a fluke and nothing more. Simple as that.
If Pac wins then he will get a chance to show everyone himself.
Do you have another term for that??? :D
Yes. 2 actually.
Greed and Insurance.
Deep in his heart, Barrera is rooting for Pacquiao. He's just proclaiming he roots for Morales to satisfy his legion of followers who expect him to be a patriotic Mexican.
But anyone really believes he'd root for a guy he hates like hell?
a must indeed... and i would also like to see JMM and PAC II.. only if JMM hadnt priced himself out... it would be one hell of a year for Pac to fight these three guys in one year...

I also believe so. And if Morales wins,he can have an alibi to avoid fighting PACMAN again.
Win or lose, PACMAN-BARRERA -II is a must.

Actually the reason Barrera is now openly stating he is rooting for Morales is because he got flamed hard in Mexico after he and his camp anounced they wanted pac to win and even went as far as saying they gave pac tips on how to win.
The fans are ultra patriotic and rooting against a countryman no matter what the terms is highly unpopular. I myself i thought it was a bitch move too that his camp would say that.
